๐ŸŒ Around The World Flight 24: Nairobi โ†’ Bujumbura

From Kenya's highlands to the edge of Lake Tanganyika.

๐Ÿ“ Route (AIRAC 2602):
HKJK/06 N0440F400 PARI4B PARIN UM306 BJA DCT HBBA/17

We climb out of Nairobi's runway 06, leaving the savannah capital behind. The Great Rift Valley stretches beneath usโ€”a dramatic reminder of the ancient forces shaping this continent. Then, as we track west, Lake Victoria appears on the horizon, a freshwater sea sprawling across three countries.

We cross the lake. Then the border. Then the mountains rise again.

๐Ÿ›ฌ Destination: Bujumbura International Airport (HBBA)

Perched on the northeastern shore of Lake Tanganyikaโ€”the world's second-deepest lake

Runway 17 brings you in over the water (a view worth the whole flight)

Gateway to Burundi's capital, where the river meets the lake

The terrain shifts from Kenyan savannah to Ugandan hills to Burundian mountains. From FL400, you can watch three countries slide past before starting your descent.

Africa keeps delivering. And we keep flying. ๐ŸŒโœˆ๏ธ

๐ŸŒ Around The World Flight 23: Mombasa โ†’ Nairobi

From the Swahili coast to the safari capital of the world.

๐Ÿ“ Route (AIRAC 2602):
HKMO/21 N0328F240 NERA1A UTIKU Q315 UTEPI UTEP1A HKJK/06

We lift off from Mombasa's runway 21, climbing out over turquoise waters one last time before turning northwest. Humidity fades. Coastal jungle thins. And slowly, the landscape risesโ€”rolling hills, deep rift valleys, cool highland air.

Short flight. Beautiful flight.

๐Ÿ›ฌ Destination: Nairobi's Jomo Kenyatta International (HKJK)

East Africa's busiest aviation hub

Runway 06 brings you in over the city, with Nairobi National Park off the wing

Gateway to safaris, giraffes, and the endless Maasai Mara

From the Indian Ocean to the edge of the savannah. Two flights. Two worlds. One unforgettable continent.

Africa, you've been incredible. Tomorrow? New skies. ๐ŸŒโœˆ๏ธ

๐ŸŒ Around The World Flight 22: Kilimanjaro โ†’ Mombasa

From the roof of Africa to the Swahili coast.

๐Ÿ“ Route (AIRAC 2602):
HTKJ/09 N0324F230 OKNE2D OKNES DCT ASOLE DCT GADLA GADL3A HKMO/21

We climb out of Kilimanjaro with the mountain still filling the rearview mirrors. But this time, instead of heading deeper into the savannah, we turn eastโ€”toward the coast, toward the Indian Ocean, toward the ancient trade winds that have called explorers here for centuries.

The landscape softens. The air smells like salt long before we see the water. And then, there it isโ€”the Kenyan coastline, turquoise and gold.

๐Ÿ›ฌ Destination: Mombasa's Moi International Airport (HKMO)

Runway 21 brings you in over the ocean

Gateway to Zanzibar, the Swahili islands, and centuries of maritime history

Our first taste of the Indian Ocean on this world tour

This is a shorter leg at FL230โ€”low enough to savor the view, high enough to watch the horizon shift from mountain brown to ocean blue. From Kili's snows to Mombasa's palms, Africa never stops surprising.

Next stop? Maybe an island. Maybe a new country. The route is unfolding day by day. ๐ŸŒŠโœˆ๏ธ

๐ŸŒ Around The World Flight 21: Entebbe โ†’ Kilimanjaro

From one great lake to the roof of Africa.

๐Ÿ“ Route (AIRAC 2602):
HUEN/17 N0431F390 XAKU2B OKSUM UL434 IMLAK LOSI2A HTKJ/09

We lift off from Entebbe, climbing out over Lake Victoria one last time before turning south. The lush Ugandan hills give way to Tanzania's vast savannahsโ€”and then, piercing the clouds on the horizon, Kili appears.

๐Ÿ›ฌ Destination: Kilimanjaro International Airport (HTKJ)

Sitting between Arusha and Moshi, with the mountain as its backdrop

Runway 09 points you straight toward the highest peak in Africa

Gateway to the Serengeti, Ngorongoro, and endless adventure

This is one of those flights where you spend half the time staring out the window. The approach? Unforgettable. Snow-capped Kili rising 19,000 feet above the African plainโ€”while you're still at FL390, it feels close enough to touch.

From the Nile's source to the continent's rooftop. The world tour just keeps climbing. ๐Ÿ”๏ธโœˆ๏ธ

๐ŸŒ Around The World Flight 20: Juba โ†’ Entebbe

From the Nile's slow bend to the shores of Lake Victoria.

๐Ÿ“ Route (AIRAC 2602):
HJJJ/13 N0280F130 ATUG1B ATUGA G656 UVBAX UVBA2A HUEN/17

We leave Juba behind and track south along the White Nile, watching the landscape green and swell beneath us. The dry plains of South Sudan give way to Uganda's rolling hillsโ€”and then, like a sudden inland sea, Lake Victoria appears on the horizon.

๐Ÿ›ฌ Destination: Entebbe International Airport (HUEN)

Perched on a peninsula jutting into Africa's largest lake

Historic gateway to Uganda and the source of the Nile

Approach Runway 17 with a stunning water view on final

This is a shorter legโ€”just a taste of East African flying before the longer adventures ahead. But don't let the distance fool you. The approach into Entebbe, with Lake Victoria stretching endlessly beneath your wings, is one of the most satisfying arrivals on the continent.

From Khartoum to Geneina to Juba to here. The journey keeps moving. ๐ŸŒโœˆ๏ธ

๐ŸŒ Around The World Flight 19: Sebara Geneina โ†’ Juba

From the edge of the Sahara to the heart of the Nile basin.

๐Ÿ“ Route (AIRAC 2602):
HSSG/04 N0437F400 RADK2B RADKA DCT SISOR/N0430F390 L554 EGBIM EGBI1A HJJJ/13

We lift off from Sebara Geneina's long runway, turn southeast, and leave the dust of Darfur behind. The landscape slowly transformsโ€”from parched desert to scattered acacia woodlands, then finally to the green sprawl of South Sudan's vast wetlands.

๐Ÿ›ฌ Destination: Juba International Airport (HJJJ)

The capital of the world's youngest nation

Where the White Nile bends east before continuing its ancient journey north

Our gateway to East Africa

The flight is long. The terrain below is wild, largely roadless, and stunning from FL390. But the approach into Juba? That's the reward.

Tomorrow brings new skies. Tonight, we're riverside in South Sudan. ๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‡ธ

๐ŸŒ Around The World Flight 18: Khartoum โ†’ Sebara Geneina (Darfur)

Not the Nile. Not the capital. This time, we head west.

๐Ÿ“ Route (AIRAC 2602):
HSSK/36 N0437F400 DCT KTM DCT FSR DCT GNA DCT HSSG/04

We leave Khartoum behind and track west across Sudanโ€”past the dry scrublands of Kordofan, over the scattered hills of Darfur, and down to a runway carved out of a remote desert town.

๐Ÿ›ฌ Destination: Sebara Geneina Airport (HSSG)

9,800 ft of asphalt

ILS approach in the middle of nowhere

Jet fuel available (because yes, we need it)

The landscape is harsh. The isolation is real. But that's exactly why this leg matters.

This isn't a tourist stop. This is overland exploration at FL400.

Tomorrow? We turn south toward Juba.
Tonight? We rest in Western Sudan. ๐ŸŒ™

๐ŸŒ Around The World Flight 17: Luxor โ†’ Khartoum

From the land of pharaohs to the heart of Sudan. ๐Ÿœ๏ธโœˆ๏ธ

๐Ÿ“ Route (AIRAC 2602):
HELX/02 N0435F390 DCT GETOS W605 SML A727 NUBAR/N0344F270 A727 SOMAK DCT DANUD DCT KUVTI KUVT1B HSSK/36

This leg is not for the faint of heart.
We're leaving Egypt behind and tracking south over seemingly endless, parched wildernessโ€”inhospitable, unforgiving, and absolutely mesmerizing.

But the destination makes it worthwhile.

๐Ÿ›ฌ Khartoum โ€“ where the White Nile (from Lake Victoria) meets the Blue Nile (from Ethiopia). Together, they form the great River Nile that flows north to Egypt.

๐ŸŒŠ Lake Victoria will come later in our journey. For now? We've earned an evening in Khartoum after a grueling but unforgettable flight.

Sometimes the toughest legs make the best stories. ๐Ÿ’ช
